Donald Trump's 2021 travel ban is marked by a systematic tightening of immigration controls, unlike the chaotic debut in 2017. Following his second inauguration, Trump quickly enacted severe restrictions, including suspensions of asylum at the southern border and revocation of legal residency for thousands of immigrants. The new ban on foreign nationals from 19 countries exemplifies a more calculated approach, with pre-existing plans set within executive orders, allowing Trump to maneuver with less immediate chaos than his first ban caused. As seen by various rights advocates, this method creates cumulative restrictions that effectively limit immigration.
Trump's latest travel ban exemplifies a systematic approach to immigration restrictions, contrasting the chaotic debut of his first travel ban back in 2017.
It's death by 1,000 cuts, said Faisal Al-Juburi of the Texas-based legal non-profit Raices, describing the gradual escalation of immigration restrictions under Trump's second term.
